Dumfries and Galloway Council is deeply saddened by the death of Councillor Archie Dryburgh MBE, a much-respected colleague who devoted many years of his life to public service and to the communities of Dumfries and Galloway.
Dumfries and Galloway Council spent £84.6 million with suppliers based in the region during 2025/26, while delivering 335 community benefits through council contracts.
Plans to create more affordable homes, help prevent homelessness and bring empty properties back into use across Dumfries and Galloway are set to be considered by councillors next month.
